Line 27:
* Bladeran: Founding member. It's a bit of a continuity injoke that, even over a year later, he still hasn't got his planned series for the ICC off the ground. He contributes his older work, ''BladeTitan974's Comics''.
* Gavla: Founding member. Arguably the most popular comic maker on BZPower, having recently smashed the record of the longest topic within the comic community, or possibly even BZPower in general (10,000+ posts). His flagship work is ''Gavla's Comics'', an enormous series spanning numerous story arcs of differing tone and theme; notably, his works are the only ones not explicitly set within the ICC universe while still being ICC canon.
* Dlakii: Founding member, and a [[Old Shame|former moderator]] of BZPower. Was [[Author Existence Failure|banned from BZPower]] under [[Mis BlamedMisblamed|highly questionable circumstances]] in March 2010, shortly after the ICC's founding, but continues to make a strong contribution to the ICC when he's not choked down by his university work; some of the ICC love making sport of subtly lampshading this fact in their work. His sole series for the ICC was ''[[Kent Brockman News|The Newsroom]]'', an office farce set in the headquarters of the beleaguered television station Channel Billion.
* Coleanuva: Youngest active member who just got his series "Coleanuva's Ski Resort" off the ground, taking place in, well, [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|a ski resort]].
* Zakitano: His primary contribution to the ICC is ''[[Stylistic Suck|BIONICLES ADVENTURS COMIXS]]''. Oh, and a little series of no significance called ''The Pirogi Vampire''.
Line 186:
* [[Original Character]]: Almost all of the characters featured throughout are original fan characters, with only scant appearances and references concerning canon ones.
* [[Orphaned Series]]: Almost half of all the series involved have been discontinued in one way or another. Plans to continue are unfortunately frequently left in [[Development Hell]].
* [[Pac-Man Fever]]: Averted hard, as many specific, current-gen games are mentioned and played with, always being depicted on the correct system. This is due to most of the members being avid gamers, and many of the games mentioned are the ones they are spending a lot of time playing with at the moment (time which then [[Author Existence Failure|distracts from comic work]]). [[Pokémon]] and [[Super Mario Bros.|Mario]] games usually are at the forefront of this, with [[EarthboundEarthBound]] references starting a small rise, thanks in no part to [[Memetic Mutation|McGyiyg]].
* [[Parody Episode]]: ''The Newsroom'' had many of these, the last being [[CSI: Miami|Cake Surprise Investigations]].
** The current saga of ''Live, Learn and Lawsuits'' has Gavla and Eljay competing in an [[Iron Chef]] parody television special.
Line 217:
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]: Polymath seems to be using this a lot, although it is more toned down.
* [[Ship Tease]]: Gavla and Chilly seem to be growing closer in recent instalments of ''Gavla's Comics''.
* [[Shout-Out]]: The comics regularly refer to other media: The Newsroom and VakamaTK's Comics have several references of [[Pokémon]] and [[CSI: Miami]], most of Blade's work includes homages to [[The Legend of Zelda]] and [[Metal Gear]], Tapika's work has a lot of [[MS Paint Adventures]] references and Live, Learn and Lawsuits has a multitude of shout outs ranging from [[Series/Home Improvement Home Improvement|Home Improvement Home Improvement]] and the [[The Cosby Show]] to [[8-Bit Theater]] and [[Iron Chef]]. Also, ''Taone Nui Offline Game'' is probably pretty much going to be one huge homage to [[EarthboundEarthBound]], [[YoutubeYouTube Poop]], the history of the BZP comics forum, and pretty much [[Author Appeal|anything else the ICC members like]].
** Nuparurocks' comics in particular, liked to reference [[Music/Daft Punk Daft Punk|Daft Punk Daft Punk]], [[Manga/Ranma One Half Ranma|Ranma One Half Ranma]], [[Series/Mister Rogers Neighborhood Mister Rogers'Neighborhood|Mister Rogers Neighborhood Mister Rogers'Neighborhood]] and [[Western Animation/Dora The Explorer Dora The Explorer|Dora The Explorer Dora The Explorer]] among other things (up to the point where Both Daft Punk and Dora were recurring characters in the series).
* [[Something Completely Different]]: ''BIONICLES ADVENTURS COMIXS'' is this to "The Pirogi Vampire", being radically different from the main series.
Line 234:
* [[Three Amigos]]: Janaro, Atoma and Shadow.
** Also, Chokii, Oneou and Tekatu, although they've been also said to be [[Too Dumb to Live]].
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: StormLasher479 used to be a pitiful villain on the competence level with Sir Pickles. However, {{spoiler|it turns out he was just [[Obfuscating Stupidity]] this entire time to try and throw Blade off track and soon turned out to be quite the villian}}.
* [[Toxic Phlebotinum]]: Energized Protodermis, which usually destroys or mutates whatever it is poured upon. {{spoiler|1=Except for VakamaTK/Tavakai and Kahi/Kahinuva, of course}}.
* [[Trigger Happy]]: Mitch, of course.
